BlockFrequencyInfoImpl: Avoid big numbers, increase precision for small spreads
BlockFrequencyInfo calculates block frequencies as Scaled64 numbers but as a last step converts them to unsigned 64bit integers (`BlockFrequency`). This improves the factors picked for this conversion so that:

* Avoid big numbers close to UINT64_MAX to avoid users overflowing/saturating when adding multiply frequencies together or when multiplying with integers. This leaves the topmost 10 bits unused to allow for some room.
* Spread the difference between hottest/coldest block as much as possible to increase precision.
* If the hot/cold spread cannot be represented loose precision at the lower end, but keep the frequencies at the upper end for hot blocks differentiable.
